However, they do offer slightly different vantage points of the canyon. You can see directly down into "the silent city" from here and get a distant view of Thor's hammer (famous rock formation).

Bryce Canyon and the area around it was originally designated as a national monument by President Harding in 1923 and 5 years later re-designated as a national park by the Congress. Farview Point is one of the scenic stops along UT-63. When you stop there, make sure to take a short hike to Privacy Point and get your camera working! The view is amazing, but many people do not take the time. Don't be one of them! :-)

This place showcases trees (pine and fir) growing amongst the hoodoos, which is something that doesn't really occur in the other areas of the park. Unique neat view!

Agua Canyon is one of the far less traveled vista points within Bryce Canyon National Park…read more Although it's not nearly as popular as the other viewpoints, it's still a wonderful overlook that focuses on the beauty of the surrounding hoodoos. It's also one of the highest viewpoints within the park at over 8,800 feet of elevation. Getting there is easy and doesn't require any kind of additional hiking or trekking. You just have to make the drive there from the visitor's center. However, if you're already planning on taking a scenic drive through the park, then it should be easy to hit on your way to or from Rainbow Point since you'll already be passing it by. The views are truly beautiful and feature some very unique hoodoo formations. Parking is super easy and you can literally pull into a parking space right from the road. Would recommend this quick stop on your scenic drive through Bryce Canyon National Park.

I recommend driving first to Rainbow Point and if interested, hiking one of the hikes there (there are three: 1.0 mi Bristlecone Loop, 8.8 mi Riggs Spring Loop and 23 mi Under-the-Rim Trail), and then traveling back to the center of the park and looking at the views on the way down. It can get crowded at the parking lot, so try to beat the crowds by going early. If you time it to be early morning with sunrise, the colors pop out even more! You can easily see why it's called Rainbow Point. There are vault toilets and benches here, but no running water. Plan accordingly

Very distinctive! I did the the Figure-8 Combination hike, which combines three amphitheater hikes, Queen's Garden, Navajo Loop, and the Peekaboo Loop. The NPS recommends to do the hike in a clockwise direction due to the elevation slope at the end of the hike, but I wanted to be contrarian haha. It wasn't bad! I liked how there were some tunnels going through some of the hoodoos, and there were various parts of the trail in the shade and in the sun just by going around the rock formations. Be aware that horses and mules on the Peekaboo Loop and should give the right-of-way to these riders. I didn't see any, but I definitely smelled and saw their leavings. Do note that there's no water on the trail, and seasonal pit toilets on Peekaboo Loop, but otherwise no restrooms.
